setting several virtual adaptors on linux


Recommended Posts

Long time fan first time Questions post.

Okay my ISP will assign each customer a max of 4 IP's(DHCP)  for example you could plug 4 PC's into your modem(the motorola surfboard supports this).

What i want to do is on my Linux box which connects straight to the modem and receives the internet IP i then want to setup another 3 virtual adaptors with different MAC's. So the linux box gets assigned 4 IP's. Is this possible?
